By now, you likely know about the incredible Conservation Chats that IEF presents monthly. These are unique opportunities to connect directly with conservationists working in the field and learn about their work from them directly. Attendance is free, and you can attend via Zoom (so you don’t even have to dress up)!

We have some wonderful guests lined up:

• Thursday, October 17th at 8am PST/10am Central: Priya Davidar & Jean-Phillipe Puyravaud
• Tuesday, November 5th at 8am PST/10am Central: Claire Willaume

You can sign up to attend these chats here. And don’t worry if you’ve missed some of our extraordinary speakers. They are all recorded and you can watch them at your leisure on our YouTube Channel. They even have their own playlist.

Recently IEF’s Sarah Conley sat down with Danielle Ribeiro from Great.com for their Great.com Talks With…podcast. This series is an antidote to negative news stories and aims to shed light on organizations and experts whose work is making a positive impact on the world.

Spreading awareness of the challenges facing elephants and the work IEF supports to address them is one of the important jobs of IEF. We believe that the more people learn about elephants the more they will be inspired to take action to help them. Listen to Sarah speak about IEF’s conservation philosophy, our projects, and more in this podcast.
